Galvanized sheets are produced from a precisely manufactured hot rolled processed sheet, which is then cold-reduced to the desired thickness. These sheets are rolled to a close tolerance and possess a fine surface finish. The continuous hot dip zinc coating will withstand bending and forming without flaking when tested in accordance with ASTM A 525. The galvanizing process produces sheets with a tight, even coat of prime spelter of the 1.25 oz. per square foot coating class. Galvanized steel sheets has a silver-grey matte finish generally acceptable on interior parts. Galvanized sheets also has good corrosion resistance, for parts where added rust protection is needed.

Galvanized Sheets' machinability is rated at 78% of B1112. Average cutting speed 130 ft/min.
This grade is easily welded by all welding processes including gas, air, and submerges arc, and the resultant welds and joints are of extremely high quality. Preheat and post-weld heating is generally not necessary.
